It's not easy trying to understand
How the world can be so cold, stealing the souls of man
Cloudy skies rain down on all your dreams
You wrestle with the fear and doubt
Sometimes it's hard but you gotta believe
Blackbird, why you wearing that frown?
Don't you know Jesus loves you and me
And the preacher on TV you're putting down?
Blackbird, how I love to hear your songs
But I could spend all of my time in the shade
In an April dream
Once she came to me
When you smiled I looked into your eyes
And I knew I'd be loving you
And then you touched my hand
This foolish game, oh, it's still the same
The notes go dancin' off in the air
And don't you believe it's true
The music is all for you
It's really all we've got to share
I've got to breathe
You can't take that from me
Cause it's all that you left that's mine
You had to leave
And that's all I can see
But you told me your love was blind
The Prayer
Album:Again
Y: I pray you’ll be our eyes
And watch us where we go
And help us to be wise
Yea-uh, here we go here we go here we go
Talk about that Word of Mouf baby!
Yeah, yeah yeah yeah yeah! Here we go, here we go
Ludacris, 4-Ize, D.E. what you want now now now now
[Ludacris]
By the cruel hand of evil at the setting of the sun
His arrow was loosed and it flew through the dark,
And his true love was slain as the shaft found its mark.
Chorus:
She'd her apron wrapped about her and he took her for a swan
I know I'll be lonesome
That brings about a little fear
I know I'll be sad and I'll be blue
I have given the best of me
When I forgot to say to you
What you forgot to say to me
Caught in a cold sweat stuck splitting hairs
I'm drinking too much
I'm on my way to striking out
Go to sleep with the pressure of everyone
Watching, waiting, they're yours for the taking
